(respected), as he has traveled the entire world on a low budget. Actually, as 
I'm now an avid (regular) traveler too, I feel that he planted some seeds in my 
head about this, since the rest of my family isn't very fond of (like) travel. 
To give you some more background, my grandfather and I have always had a 
close relationship. He always used to go out of his way (inconvenience 
himself to help me) to come visit me when I was a child. I remember he used

one another. 
I find him really interesting because he has traveled to 111 countries and

typical tourist destinations, which shows how adventurous he is. Even though 
his body is aging, his mind is still sharp and full of knowledge about many 
worldly topics. Furthermore, he has a unique sense of humor which makes time

with him enjoyable. All in all, there aren't many people like my grandfather so I 
treasure (value) him.
16/ Describe a time you taught something new to a younger 
person 
You should say:
 
- when it happened
 
- who and what you taught
 
- why you taught this person
 
- and how you felt about the teaching
 
Well, since I’m a teacher, I teach new things to younger people on a daily basis. 
However, I will highlight one experience in particular that was really rewarding
